Nancy Boutilier Quote

Sapphic ChordsOn what marble stones would you scratch your love today?Spray it on brick walls, rap it in pool halls,hang it on the clothes line with you lingerie?Oh, Sappho!Would you swing a softball bat, wear lipstick, ride a Harley?What novels would you pen, what political party?Is that really tenderness in your final line, or do words hang for what youcouldn't say?What remnants you left behind, too little but enoughfor us to know the luxury of your lust.Your heat, your wisdom, your passion - all left in fragmented trust.Oh, Sappho!
